I have been watching some TV since I have been over here. There are a couple of channels with American movies, and one with sitcoms, then some news channels. The lack of choice means that it hasn’t overwhelmed my life like in the states.
Tonight, Dead Poets Society was on. I have always loved the movie, and it inspires me to get back to writing. I know that I am a writer, but I seem to get away from that a lot in my life. I have been debating about what I am going to do over here in Qatar. Whether I should stick to myself and just work on getting healthy, writing, learning, and/or make some films, or should I try to get to know everyone out here and just have fun. I guess that I have come to realize that neither, by itself, is a good choice. I am in a new place and I have to get out and experience it, but I need to stay in and write. If I get rid of the TV watching, I should have enough time for both. When I was younger, I gave up TV for awhile. It was one of the best times in my life, I guess that it is time to do that again.
